Fig. 7 illustrates the flow chart of the example of the action of sound paperboard determination processing.
The flow process of the action shown in Fig. 7 performs in step S201 of the flow chart shown in Fig. 6.
Starting, sound paper jam determination unit 153 is turned by the second wave filter 142b, the second enlarging section 143b and the 2nd A/D Change portion 144b, obtain the second ultrasonic signal (step S301) from ultrasonic sensor 114.
Fig. 8 A illustrates the diagram of the example of the second ultrasonic signal.Diagram 800 shown in Fig. 8 A represents and turns from the 2nd A/D Second ultrasonic signal of the numeral that the portion 144b of changing receives.The horizontal axis representing time of diagram 800, the longitudinal axis represents and the second surpasses The signal value of acoustic signals.
Then, sound paper jam determination unit 153 generates the second ultrasonic signal received from the 2nd A/D converter section 144b Signal (step S302) after taking absolute value.
Fig. 8 B illustrate the second ultrasonic signal take absolute value after the diagram of example of signal.Diagram 810 shown in Fig. 8 B Represent diagram 800 the second ultrasonic signal take absolute value after signal.The horizontal axis representing time of diagram 810, longitudinal axis table Show the absolute value of the signal value of the second ultrasonic signal.
Then, sound paper jam determination unit 153 extracts the profile (step of the signal after taking absolute value the second ultrasonic signal S303).Sound paper jam determination unit 153 extracts envelope, as the signal after the second ultrasonic signal is taken absolute value outside Shape.
Fig. 8 C illustrates the diagram of the example of the profile of the signal after taking absolute value the second ultrasonic signal.Shown in Fig. 8 C Diagram 820 represents the envelope 821 of the signal after the taking absolute value the second ultrasonic signal of diagram 810.Diagram 820 Horizontal axis representing time, the longitudinal axis represents the absolute value of the signal value of the second ultrasonic signal.
Then, about the profile of the signal after taking absolute value the second ultrasonic signal, sound paper jam determination unit 153 calculates Count value, its more than first threshold Th1 in the case of be increased, be reduced in the case of less than first threshold Th1 (step S304).Sound paper jam determination unit 153 presses predetermined time interval (between the sampling of the such as second ultrasonic signal Every) respectively to the value of envelope 821 whether in the judgement carried out above of first threshold Th1, in the value of envelope 821 In the case of more than one threshold value Th1, increase count value, in the case of less than first threshold Th1, reduce count value.
Fig. 8 D is the example of the count value illustrating that the profile about the signal after taking absolute value the second ultrasonic signal calculates Diagram.Diagram 830 shown in Fig. 8 D represents the count value that the envelope 821 for diagram 820 calculates.Diagram The horizontal axis representing time of 820, the longitudinal axis represents count value.
Then, sound paper jam determination unit 153 to count value whether in Second Threshold Th2 judgement carried out above (step S305).If count value is at more than Second Threshold Th2, sound paper jam determination unit 153 judges that sound paperboard occurs (step S306), if count value is less than Second Threshold Th2, sound paper jam determination unit 153 judges that sound paperboard does not occur (step S307), a series of step is terminated.
In Fig. 8 C, envelope 821 reaches more than first threshold Th1 at moment T1, thereafter, is no longer below the first threshold Value Th1.Therefore, as in fig. 8d, count value increase from moment T1, moment T2 reach Second Threshold Th2 with On, sound paper jam determination unit 153 judges that sound paperboard occurs.
It addition, in step S303, sound paper jam determination unit 153 can not also obtain envelope, as ultrasonic to second Ripple signal take absolute value after the profile of signal, but the signal after the second ultrasonic signal is taken absolute value, obtain and take The signal (hereinafter referred to as peak hold signal) kept to peak value.Such as, central processing department 150 is only in certain holding The maximum of the signal after keeping the second ultrasonic signal to take absolute value in period, makes it thereafter by with certain attenuation rate Peak hold signal is obtained in decay.
Fig. 9 A and Fig. 9 B is for being obtained peak hold signal by the second ultrasonic signal and judging whether sound occurs The figure that the process of paperboard illustrates.
Diagram 900 shown in Fig. 9 A represents, the peak of the signal after taking absolute value about the second ultrasonic signal of diagram 810 Value keeps signal 901.The horizontal axis representing time of diagram 900, the longitudinal axis represents the absolute of the signal value of the second ultrasonic signal Value.
Diagram 910 shown in Fig. 9 B represents, the count value calculated for the peak hold signal 901 of diagram 900.Show The horizontal axis representing time of Figure 91 0, the longitudinal axis represents count value.Peak hold signal 901 reaches first threshold at moment T3 More than Th1, is brought down below first threshold Th1 at moment T4, again reaches more than first threshold Th1 at moment T5, its After, it is no longer below first threshold Th1.Therefore, as shown in Figure 9 B, count value increase from moment T3, from moment T4 Rise and reduce, again increase from moment T5, reach more than Second Threshold Th2 at moment T6, it is determined that sound paperboard is sent out Raw.
Figure 10 A and Figure 10 B is the figure for illustrating the situation of conveying card.
Figure 10 A represents that the card C that the rigidity of plastics etc. is high is just clamped between feeding-in roll 111 and damping roll 112 State.When the state from Figure 10 A carries card C further, then it is transitioned into the state of Figure 10 B.
Owing to upper side guides 107b and lower side guides 107a configure deviously, thus, when card C is with held State between feeding-in roll 111 and damping roll 112, also the most driven by the first conveying roller 115 and first If roller 116 clamping, deform due to its elasticity.Therefore, as shown in Figure 10 B, in the rear end of card C from feeding-in roll 111 when leaving with damping roll 112, owing to card C to return to original state from the state of deformation, sometimes a P with Lower side guides 107a contacts and sends impact sound.Card C contacts the impulsive sound produced with lower side guides 107a Sound, is collected by ultrasonic receiver 114b.
According to the above-mentioned impact sound collected, sound paper jam determination unit 153 likely falsely determines that paperboard occurs.Separately Outward, Figure 10 A and Figure 10 B is when conveying roller leaves, sends an example of the carrying path of impact sound, but also It is not limited to this.Also, outside plastic cards, as long as the thick paper that rigidity is high, be likely to as plastic cards Send impact sound.Further, though do not bend at carrying path, for plane in the case of, it is also possible to due to The jump of roller produces impact sound.
Figure 11 is the flow chart of the example of the action representing position paperboard determination processing.
The flow process of the action shown in Figure 11 performs in step S201 of the flow chart shown in Fig. 6.
Starting, position paper jam determination unit 154 is the most standby, until the top of paper detected by the second note detection portion 113 End (step S401).When the value of the second note detection signal from the second note detection portion 113 is from representing that paper does not exists The value of state when changing to the value representing the state existed, position paper jam determination unit 154 judges in the second note detection portion The position of 113, i.e. at feeding-in roll 111 and the downstream of damping roll 112 and the first conveying roller 115 and the first driven voller 116 Upstream, detects the top of paper.
Then, when the top of paper being detected by the second note detection portion 113, position paper jam determination unit 154 starts timing (step S402).
Then, to the 3rd note detection portion 117, whether position paper jam determination unit 154 detects that the top of paper judges (step S403).When the value of the 3rd note detection signal from the 3rd note detection portion 117 is from representing that paper is non-existent The value of state changes to represent the value of the state existed, and position paper jam determination unit 154 judges in the 3rd note detection portion 117 Position, i.e. in the first conveying roller 115 and the downstream of the first driven voller 116 and the upstream of image pickup part 118, paper detected The top opened.
When the top of paper being detected by the 3rd note detection portion 117, position paper jam determination unit 154 judges position paperboard Not there is (step S404), terminate a series of step.
On the other hand, when the 3rd note detection portion 117 is not detected by the top of paper, position paper jam determination unit 154 (step S405) is judged to whether have passed through the stipulated time (such as 1 second) from starting timing.If not through rule Fix time, then position paper jam determination unit 154 makes process return to step S403, and again, the 3rd note detection portion 117 is right Whether detect that the top of paper judges.On the other hand, in the case of have passed through the stipulated time, position paperboard is sentenced Determine portion 154 and judge that position paperboard occurs (step S406), terminate a series of step.It addition, at paper transport device In the case of 100 need not position paperboard determination processing, it is also possible to omitted.
It addition, when by the 3rd note detection signal from the 3rd note detection portion 117, the first conveying roller 115 with When the detected downstream of the first driven voller 116 is to the top of paper, in order to not send into next paper, central processing department 150 Temporarily controlling drive division 145 makes the rotation of feeding-in roll 111 and damping roll 112 stop.Thereafter, when by from second The second note detection signal in note detection portion 113, the detected downstream at feeding-in roll 111 with damping roll 112 arrives paper During rear end, central processing department 150 controls drive division 145 again makes feeding-in roll 111 and damping roll 112 rotate, conveying Next paper.Thus, central processing department 150 prevents multiple paper overlapping in carrying path.Therefore, position paperboard Detection unit 154 can also control drive division 145 at central processing department 150 makes feeding-in roll 111 and damping roll 112 rotate Moment start timing, within the stipulated time, be not detected by the situation on the top of paper in the 3rd note detection portion 117 Under, it is determined that position paperboard occurs.
Figure 12 is the flow chart of the example representing the folded action sending determination processing.
The flow process of the action shown in Figure 12 performs in step S203 of the flow chart shown in Fig. 6.
First, folded send detection unit 155 by the first wave filter 142a, the first enlarging section 143a and an A/D converter section 144a, obtains the first ultrasonic signal (step S501) from ultrasonic sensor 114.
Then, the folded signal value sending the detection unit 155 first ultrasonic signal to getting the most not up to is folded and is sent decision threshold Value carries out judging (step S502).
Figure 13 is the figure for illustrating the characteristic of the first ultrasonic signal.
In the diagram 1300 of Figure 13, solid line 1301 represents the first ultrasonic signal in the case of conveying single paper is opened Characteristic, dotted line 1302 represent there is paper folded send in the case of the characteristic of the first ultrasonic signal.Diagram 1300 Horizontal axis representing time, the longitudinal axis represents the signal value of the first ultrasonic signal.Owing to there is folded sending, in interval 1303, The signal value of the first ultrasonic signal of dotted line 1302 reduces.Therefore, it is possible to by the signal value of the first ultrasonic signal be No not up to folding send decision threshold ThA, judges whether paper occurs folded sending.
On the other hand, solid line 1304 represents the first surpassing in the case of only carrying a plastic card thicker than paper The characteristic of acoustic signals.Owing to, in the case of conveying card, the signal value of the first ultrasonic signal send decision threshold less than folded Value ThA, thus, folded send detection unit 155 to falsely determine that generation the folded of paper is given.Further, since it is sufficiently thick in conveying In the case of the thick paper that rigidity is high, also detect that there is the super of the characteristic identical with in the situation carrying plastic card Acoustic signals, thus, folded send detection unit 155 likely to falsely determine that generation the folded of paper is given.
Folded send detection unit 155 the first ultrasonic signal signal value less than folded send decision threshold in the case of, it is determined that occur The folded of paper is sent (step S503), and on the other hand, the signal value at the first ultrasonic signal send more than decision threshold folded In the case of, it is determined that do not occur the folded of paper to send (step S504), terminate a series of step.
Figure 14 is the flow chart of the example of the action representing that unusual determination processes.
The flow process of the action shown in Figure 14 performs in step S204 of the flow chart shown in Fig. 6.
Starting, control portion 151 judges being the most determined with position paperboard by position paper jam determination unit 154 (step S601).In the case of judging that by position paper jam determination unit 154 position paperboard occurs, control portion 151 judges card Paper occurs, and abnormal conditions occur (step S602), terminate a series of step.
In the case of not judging by position paper jam determination unit 154 that position paperboard occurs, control portion 151 to the most by Folded send detection unit 155 to be determined with folded sending to carry out judging (step S603).
Not by folded send detection unit 155 judge folded send generation in the case of, control portion 151 is to the most by sound paperboard Detection unit 153 is determined with sound paperboard to carry out judging (step S604).
In the case of not judging by sound paper jam determination unit 153 that sound paperboard occurs, control portion 151 judges paper Folded sending all does not occurs with paperboard, for normal condition (step S605), terminates a series of step.
On the other hand, in the case of judging that by sound paper jam determination unit 153 sound paperboard occurs, control portion 151 judges Paperboard occurs, and abnormal (step S606) occurs, terminates a series of step.
Also, in step S603, by folded send detection unit 155 judge folded send generation in the case of, control portion 151 is to being No it be determined with sound paperboard by sound paper jam determination unit 153 and carry out judging (step S607).
In the case of not judging by sound paper jam determination unit 153 that sound paperboard occurs, control portion 151 judges paper overlapped Send generation, abnormal (step S608) occurs, terminates a series of step.
On the other hand, in the case of be determined with the generation of sound paperboard by sound paper jam determination unit 153, control portion 151 is sentenced Fixed due to conveying card or thick paper, folded send detection unit 155 to judge folded to send generation, sound paper jam determination unit 153 judgement sound Sound paperboard occurs.In this case, control portion 151 is regarded as folded the sending of paper and does not all occur with paperboard and be judged to Normal condition (step S609), terminates a series of step.
It addition, in the flow chart shown in Figure 14, it is also possible to omit the presence or absence position card shown in step S601 and S602 The determination processing of paper, only from by the folded result of determination sent of the folded presence or absence sending detection unit 155 to carry out and by sound paper jam determination unit The result of determination of the presence or absence sound paperboard that 153 are carried out, determines whether that the folded of paper is sent generation and send out with or without paperboard simply Raw.Even if in this case, control portion 151 can determine that, in the case of conveying card or thick paper, paper Folded sending all does not occurs with paperboard.
